Hey theres a chance i might get a 250r air cooled and is that a stock swing arm you uesed on there. And I love your bike man
It's his sons birthday party today, so I doubt hell respond anytime soon.
But, yes, it is a stock swing arm. He stripped the old paint off, re-sprayed it in white. The thing looks awesome.

whew, its over!! Now to get rid of all these dumb toys. That Hot Wheels "T-RECKS" is about the dumbest thing ever.
True, its a stock swingarm, just sand blasted and painted it gloss white and clear coat. Ive never been a huge fan of the gold parts anyway, I also knew I was using the front numberplate in white, so I figured WTH, and did the swingarm white. I really like how it came out.

imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, Thank You!! My goal with the old school project was to illustrate that the free air 250R's ARE a viable machine, and can be set up to look just as good as anything else out there. Hopefully, more will be saved. The only down side is that they are becoming scarcer every day, parted out and trashed to hell.
